| I can't wait to have windowing bugs and UI issues but in Minecraft! Jokes aside, I've grown to love "XYZ in Minecraft". It's like a newer (still 2011 was a long time ago!) version of "Doom on XYZ". |

| This is amazing. And it's all done in 8 KLOC – half of it Java, half of it Rust. Link to source:

| Minecraft is becoming DOOM in terms of crazy technical feats. I love it. |
| |
| ▲ | colordrops an hour ago | parent [-] | | Becoming? crazy stuff has been done in Minecraft for the longest time. Someone built a functional CPU and computer in Minecraft in 2010. | | |
| ▲ | avaer an hour ago | parent [-] | | I agree: running simulated computers inside of Minecraft is a significantly more impressive technical feat than bolting on display surfaces to planes with a mod. There's a big difference between something being compiled to run inside of Minecraft, versus running a sidecar that streams back a display. It's the difference between compiling and running on your machine, and streaming back a cloud machine using RDP. Not like this makes a difference to users, who don't know how any of this works. But we are on Hacker News... | | |

| I wonder how this would pair with a VR mod. It doesn't seem like Vivecraft supports the version this was posted for at the moment, but if they had the ability to play nice that seems like it would would be a fun way to experience software. |

| ▲ | avaer an hour ago | parent [-] | | There are already VR overlay applications that do this on top of any game, not just Minecraft. | | |
| ▲ | Philpax an hour ago | parent [-] | | Yes, but part of the fun is doing it in Minecraft and using Minecraft's language for it (e.g. putting windows in your inventory, pulling them out of chests, etc) |

| If its not written with blocks its not real. |
| |
| ▲ | tines an hour ago | parent [-] | | "In Minecraft" doesn't mean what it used to. When somebody wrote an 8-bit CPU literally "in Minecraft" it used to be badass. Now it's just a game addon. | | |
